So I ask you, TES veterans, which game should I play to be able to understand most of the ESO lore and in what order(if its not from exemple TES 3 to 5)?

Think you get better answer from Skyrim forum.

I'd say from tes 3-5. It's a tough question since none of the games revolves around this timeline of ESO. But I'd say Morrowind contains the most amount of lore and depth so play that first either way. Also if you do it in that order you wont complain as much with how bad the Morrowind combat is seeing as how engaging it is in Skyrim.

But yeah, if you're gonna play them all play them in order. If only one; go with Morrowind.

EDIT: Then again Oblivion does offer a more culturally diverse environment... It's really hard to say, what faction do you intend to play?

There is no answer to this question.

At best, if you want to be better aquainted with the combat system, then Skyrim is what you should play. But considering ESO takes place before any of the games timelines, it basically IS the lore in itself.

Thanks for the replies, I really appreciate that you guys took the time!

Thats a good question! I dont really know the races so far but all I know is that I like to play sneaky/rogue-ish so maybe there will be a "better" race in each faction that will be a better choice... But to give you an idea, I have a crush on that assasin in the ESO teaser video

I recommend playing all the games. But as a new player Morrowind might be a bid too aged for you. If you JUST want a basic understanding of the universe, then a lil UESP reading wont hurt. If you want to take a look around in cyrodill (The upcomming PvP zone in ESO) then check Oblivion out. If you want an easy introduction to the universe, then i'd say Skyrim is most user friendly.

The combat be a bit like neverwinters i think, hopefully a hole lot faster and less clunky.

If you want combat Similair to ESO then skyrim. I personally liked oblivion the best because of the quests.

simple answer: wow

or anything else that's got nothing to do with TES lore

Daggerfall

Nothing since Zenimax ignores some aspects of the lore presented in those games. But just read lore on the imperial library,will prepare you for eso.
